TJei called me late this afternoon. She was in tears and so distraught. "Grandma, they won't let me go to second grade" she exclaimed through her tears. What, baby? Who won't let you go? What are you talking about?"
"The school" she said. "I missed too many days and they won't let me go to second grade!"
My heart just broke for her. At the same time, my mind raced...what the heck? She hasn't missed that much school. What on earth was going on?
Then TJei squeeled...with laughter. "April Fool's!"
Oh my gosh. The girl got me good. She totally had me believing she was being held back.
